Family Plan

Francine reconnects with her birth family when she starts craving the experience of having a big family. Stan becomes a "picker" based on his obsession with "American Pickers".

Huh, thought Francine's birth parents were gone for good.

Roger has to be with Stan. The concept is too good to not have Roger be his partner.

WHO ABUSED HIM. WHO ABUSED THE BOY.
If you ever check the credits closely you'll notice that AD has an very high success rate with recruiting all its celebrity cameo voicework. And not even just when people are "playing themselves" the standard non-Smith core cast episode averages like 2-3 special guests of note who throw in a few lines

Stan dismissed them when he realized that Francine's adopted parents really did love her despite leaving her out of their will.

And Frannys birth parents left Stan to die in a house fire based in their liability if they get involved.

That's why I'm surprised they are bringing them back. Mainly he'll finally get his pony, Buttercup.

That one was great. I think I've said it in this thread before but it's insane that this show can put out episodes that good in its fourteenth season. The Simpsons declined by season 9, and Family Guy fell apart like a year or two after its return but American Dad is incredibly consistent.

oh, Marmalade

and seriously, I think American Dad has gotten funnier since the channel jump. the cold opens went from being eh to really good. favorite one remains the one where Roger accidentally picks up a new job after the one lady thinks his persona is a waitress

I think most of the cold opens being off was that the first crop of TBS episodes weren't written or animated with cold opens in mind. TBS just sliced the first five minutes and put them in front of the credits instead of after.

Way back in "Big Trouble in Little Langley". Stan sought them out after learning her adoptive parents left her out of their will.

Honestly this episode highlights an issue I've had with American Dad for a while now, an over reliance on violence and/or death for humor, it's just kinda cheap and lazy

Hopefully we see a comeback of Johny Concussion.

I think the best impression ever on the show was in "Home Adrone."

Roger doing an impression of Stan was amazing since they are both Seth anyways. But Roger doing an impression of Stan was different than just doing Stan's voice.

I'm assuming that's Tommy Blacha from Metalocalypse doing the voice of Rockin' Ronnie? Noticed his name was in the credits.
